Thank you for your interest in applying for a fellowship at the Leibniz Institute for Educational Media | Georg Eckert Institute (GEI)!
The aim of the fellowships is to support and promote academic work in the fields of textbook and (digital) educational media research. Applications are welcome from doctoral candidates and established academics, as well as individuals both in Germany and around the world who work on textbook and (digital) educational media composition, for educational media publishers or whose didactic work influences curricula, textbooks and (digital) educational media. The GEI’s grants enable recipients to spend a dedicated period using the research library and the Institute's (digital) research infrastructures. They also facilitate academic exchange and networking activities with colleagues and international fellows.
